Following the thought of football matches, although my team is in a winning streak at the moment, I know that won’t last and at some time we will be losing matches before we get back to winning them again. That is the manner of sport – some you win and some you lose
Our trust in God is not like that; we are always on the winning side. Things will not always go our way, but they will always go God’s way. God has our best interests at heart and He will ordain everything for our good. This will include dark days and weary ways as well as triumphant times and days of blessing. We need in the darkness to remember what we learned in the light and in the light to remember what we learned in the darkness. This will keep us on God’s even keel.
